4 € (the school board) have not considered alternative sites, even in view of the council resolution to hold up expropriation." The dialogue formed the climax of the somewhat stormy, although still confused, meeting. Well over 100 attended, and tried to squeeze words of hope or encouragement out of the five trystees present. They were not rewarded. The homeowners demanded a straight answer as to whether or not they would be expropriated, and when told that they would be, more than half of the audience got up and left. Dr. Christie went on to explain that the board did not think it was in the interests of the expropriated residents to keep them in suspense. ‘"We have considered the alternatives. This is an attempt to satisfy the educational needs of the community." Page 8 One of the more feasible alternatives had been presented by Bert Stollard, a former council member.

At the School Board meeting it was discovered that 30 per cent of the expropriated homeowners had approached the Board solicitor for a settlement. Charles Ellis, president of the ratepayers, said he was disappointed and surprised at the news, if true. "How can people think that they alone can do more than a unified group?" he asked. In the efforts to save their homes, residents proposed several alternate sites. But these sites were no good, explained trustee William Bayes. "We have permission to build only an addition to the present building, therefore it has to be built on this site. and rise up." A highâ€"rise school would fit the plan ideally, he stated. Each class could occupy one floor, and communicate by means of stairs, escalators, and moving ramps.

"Why don‘t you wait for the province to enact the h o m e â€" f o r â€" a â€" h o m e legislation," asked Bob Hewitt, a veteran of many expropriation battles. Trustee Bayes said that it might not even be enacted. "Our policy is almost that which the province has under legislation, in that it goes beyond cash value." | He stated later that the name â€" ‘homeâ€"forâ€"aâ€"home‘ was really a misnomer, and therefore misleading. It is almost impossible to provide another home for the expropriated resident, that would be suitable. When asked what he would do if he were expropriated, Trustee Frank Oke replied jl-luat, if the expropriating body had the Jim Hicks heatedly argued that the Board "leave this school the way it is, and leave these people their homes."

After the council decision of a few weeks ago that suggested a halt in expropriations until the province had passed legislation, it was up to Mayor Jack Mould to call such a meeting.
